Same old "Nagios may not be running!" thing

[Stan Tichomirov]

glad i could help :-)

we have written some shell scripts to report memory/cpu utilization for *nix
boxes, these should work on solaris, linux, freebsd, hpux and tru64 (you will
have to change some paths).

also, i wrote a couple of scripts for freebsd (haven't tested on OpenBSD or
NetBSD) to check for utilization of mbuf clusters using netstat -m (mbuf
cluster utilization goes up during some DOS attacks).  Try them out if you
want.
